FAQs
How many items can you do per hour?
Throughput depends on design size. Name drops/initials are the fastest. We’ll recommend options and the number of machines needed based on your guest count.
Can guests pick their own thread colour and font?
Yes—within a curated set approved before the event to keep lines moving and branding consistent.
Do you digitize logos?
Yes. We digitize logos in advance and test stitch so everything runs smoothly on site.
Can you travel outside Toronto?
We primarily serve the GTA but travel across Ontario. Share your venue details and we’ll include travel in the quote.
Tell us your event date, venue, estimated guest count, and the items you’d like embroidered. We’ll reply with concepts and a tailored plan.
